League Setup (FOF8)

[Hooper]

Step 4 is only necessary if joining the league or setting up after the new season has begun.

1. Go to the Controls-Participants menu.

2. Run the Enter New Career function. Choose your team, set to "Begin without Draft" and enter League ID: Imperial (It's case-sensitive)

3. Enter the league's FTP information.

Server: ftp.fof-ifl.com
User: Imperial@fof-ifl.com
Password: 1mp3r1@l
Leave the port as 21
You don't need to enter a base directory

4. Download the following file and unzip the 2 files into the leagues/Imperial directory of your Front Office Football installation (C:\Users\*LOGIN*\AppData\Local\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football Eight\leagues\Imperial). https://www.fof-ifl.com/files/IFLnewGM.zip

5. Run the Import Game Files function. You will need your team password. It can be found in the .##P file in your FOF7 directory. If you don't have it, post below or PM Hooper.

6. Run the Restore Career function. This may take a long time.

7. Run the Import Configuration function.

8. Run the Restore Playbook function. (Assuming the commish remembered to put it out there for you.)

I was asked to mention the multi-player options here too ...

There are two options near the bottom. One to save your game plan and depth chart when you export. The other to auto-create game plan and depth chart. You want them set to Yes and No respectively.

I mean, you probably do. It's personal preference really if you don't want to do game plans and depth charts.

Yes and No for sure.
